Fund A Bursary

Birmingham Repertory Theatre's youth theatre, the Young REP works with young people aged between 7 and 25 across Birmingham and the West Midlands. Young people work with professional theatre makers to create and produce a broad range of high quality theatrical experiences.

Taking part in the Young REP provides the participants with valuable experience of interacting with other young people and helps to improve social skills and boost self esteem. However, some of the young people who would most benefit from the skills and confidence that drama can supply are not be able to afford the annual membership fees.

Could you offer a young person the chance to develop their skills and achieve their ambitions?

A donation of £175 will enable a local child to join one of our Young REP companies. Bursary supporters will receive regular updates about the Young REP and opportunities to attend performances to experience the impact of their donation.
